In this article, a distributed stochastic model predictive control (MPC) algorithm with a multirate sampling mechanism is proposed for a networked linear system with multiple dynamic subsystems. A delta operator approach is used for the multiple dynamic subsystems with different sampling periods in the multirate sampling mechanism. Both stochastic disturbances and probabilistic constraints of the multiple dynamic subsystems are satisfied by the distributed stochastic MPC algorithm. Packets dropout are considered by the stochastic MPC algorithm and state predicted errors are compensated. Recursive feasibility and quadratic stability are obtained for the networked linear system under the distributed stochastic MPC algorithm. A numerical example is given to illustrate effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
